Code-backed validations and workflow rules
- Activation runs the idempotent, prefix-aware installer.
- Normal administration does not expose connector URLs, ports, tokens, Node.js or shell commands.
- The module uses linked-device WhatsApp Web sessions rather than the WhatsApp Business API, Cloud API or Meta Graph API.
- Know that routine installer and runtime preparation work preserves the isolated linked-device authentication directory for each account.
Expected result and verification
- The requested action completes without a permission, validation, connector or native CRM error.
- The selected account or conversation shows the expected state without changing another account’s data.
- Where the action creates evidence, confirm the message, native record, verification event, portal history or audit entry is present.
Security, privacy and troubleshooting checks
- Never expose connector tokens, loopback ports, authentication directories or raw customer verification replies.
- Use the supported Connections, Access Control, Settings and Audit Trail pages rather than editing runtime or database records directly.
- If the expected control is missing, verify both native capability and per-account permission before treating it as an installation fault.
